No, this is not a packing device for the espreso machine. Actually a part of the tracksetter for the PB that needed some straightening. I think it is straight now.

The snow the past few days has made for some fantastic classic skiing. When temps are cold, if you got some deep and firm tracks, its the way to go. I don't think I have skated more than once the past few days.

Oh, what a crazy week with all the drama from having sections, to not, to now having them next Wed. Don't feel like going in details. Basically just got a little upset with some situations in hs skiing and probably went a bit overboard but hopefully some good will come out of it. Can't think of many sports that top HS skiing so when something I have a deep passion for seems to be out of whack, I made my voice known. I see the UCI race for New Mexico got axed and they are looking. Going through what we did last week it doesn't surprise me that promoters/venues don't want to go through with some stuff, especially if they are barely breaking even with it.

Big tourney last weekend for Jon up in Fargo. They won the first game, Jon gets the hat trick and the game winner in OT but they lost the last two. Got shut out the second game, and lost in OT the third game. Jon scored one goal in that third game. Jake has been skiing Varsity the past few meets (hes in 7th grade now) and doing great. Keeping it fun with no pressure and doing it for experience. Jens is being Jens and Jack is always making friends with guests at the lodge. Jonell is super mom and wife keeping everything together. Can't believe Feb 1 is right around the corner. Wow. Winter hasn't been great snow wise but could be a lot worse. Still going on consecitive days skiing since Dec. 3. so very happy about that and finally racking up some miles on the VK Pro. The 108 is doing a incredible job. Only issue is making some off camber turns but will work on the suspension and weight in the front to correct that.
